Residual Renal Function and Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Peritoneal Dialysis: A Pilot Study.
Article in Lung, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 8 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeObstructive sleep apnea is common in patients with end-stage renal disease, and there is increasing evidence that clinical factors specific to end-stage renal disease contribute pathophysiologically to obstructive sleep apnea. It is not known whether circumstances specific to dialysis modality, in this case peritoneal dialysis, affect obstructive sleep apnea. Our study aimed to investigate the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea in the peritoneal dialysis population and the relevance of dialysis-specific measures and kidney function in assessing this bidirectional relationship.
methodsParticipants with end-stage renal disease who were treated with nocturnal automated peritoneal dialysis for at least 3 months were recruited from a hospital-based dialysis center. Laboratory measures of dialysis adequacy, peritoneal membrane transporter status, and residual renal function were gathered by chart review. Patients participated in a home sleep apnea test using a level III sleep apnea monitor.
resultsOf fifteen participants recruited, 33% had obstructive sleep apnea diagnosed by apnea-hypopnea index ≥ 5 events per hour of sleep. Renal creatinine clearance based upon 24-h urine collection was negatively correlated with apnea-hypopnea index (ρ = - 0.63, p = 0.012). There were no significant associations between anthropometric measures, intra-abdominal dwell volume, or peritoneal membrane transporter status and obstructive sleep apnea measures.
conclusionsThe prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea and sleep disturbances is high in participants receiving peritoneal dialysis. Elevated apnea-hypopnea index is associated with lower residual renal function, whereas dialysis-specific measures such as intra-abdominal dwell volume and peritoneal membrane transporter status do not correlate with severity of obstructive sleep apnea.
